ASUS ROG Strix GT35 vs iBUYPOWER SlateMR 267i for MSFS: 15-point gap settles it at Ultra settings.

The ASUS ROG Strix GT35 scores 93.6/100 against the iBUYPOWER SlateMR 267i's 78.6/100 on our model-derived scale — a 15-point gap that translates directly to headroom at the settings where MSFS punishes lesser rigs. The GT35's Core Ultra 9 285K and RTX 4090 hold smooth frame times during VR city flyovers over photogrammetry-heavy Manhattan or dense EGLL approaches with live AI traffic at Ultra settings, where the 4070 Super starts dropping frames. The SlateMR 267i earns its place for pilots flying VFR cross-country legs at High settings on a flat monitor, where the i7-14700F and 4070 Super cover the workload at a mid-range price point.
